As It Stands Takes a Peak at the Blogs of Humboldt County Sunday

Venture where no non-blogger has gone before in this Sunday’s Op-Ed section of the Times-Standard.

I take a look at the blogs that form our regional blogisphere, and share their stories.

Bloggers – don’t miss out on this dead-tree edition; you might be in it! It’ll make a great souvenir. Of course you can read it online at the T-S or here. Is the column controversial?

You’ll have to decide that.

Did you talk to the people you are going to mention?

Who do you ask Rose?

I will say that as a professional journalist I know what consititues libel and slander.

Tune in tomorrow and see.

Whoa! Wasn't expecting that! Not warm and fuzzy, then? Are you following the discussion on the herald and samoa softball?

ImBlogCrazy said...

Yes, I have been reading the two blogs.

Interesting.

Ah heck Rose...I can't keep this pretence up...it's a warm and fuzzy column.

LOL, was just asking because in the happier old days, when Hank or Kevin did a story on the blogs they usually interviewed them and the bloggers were, with great wit and hilarity, promoting the heck out of their world-wide 15 minutes of fame. Then they'd blog that they made the big-time. And they've been remarkably quiet this time. :)

Well done, sir. I'd add, however, that political blogging in Humboldt County is like knife fighting in close quarters, and "the herald" is not really a news source, at least as its primary purpose.

Wow, what a refreshing read! As someone who loves exploring the blogosphere, I am thrilled to see a newspaper dedicating a whole section to showcase the hidden gems of Humboldt County. Reading about the unique experiences and perspectives of these bloggers brings genuine joy to my heart. It's like taking a virtual journey through their lives, discovering new stories and gaining a deeper connection to the community. Kudos to the Times-Standard for bringing this delightful endeavor to life!
